DescriptionThe VNH5180A-E is a full bridge motor driver intended for a wide range of automotive applications. The device incorporates a dual monolithic high-side driver and two low-side switches. Both switches are designed using STMicroelectronics’ well known and proven

proprietary VIPower® M0 technology that allows to efficiently integrate on the same die a true Power MOSFET with an intelligent signal/protection circuitry. The three dies are assembled in PowerSSO-36 TP package on electrically isolated leadframes. This package, specifically designed for the harsh automotive environment offers improved thermal performance thanks to exposed die pads. Moreover, its fully symmetrical mechanical design allows superior manufacturability at board level. The input signals INA and INB can directly interface to the microcontroller to select the motor direction and the brake condition. The DIAGA/ENA or DIAGB/ENB, when connected to an external pull-up resistor, enables one leg of the bridge. Each DIAGA/ENA provides a feedback digital diagnostic signal as well. The normal operating condition is explained in the truth table. The CS pin allows to monitor the motor current by delivering a current proportional to its value when CS_DIS pin is driven low or left open. When CS_DIS is driven high, CS pin is in high impedance condition. The PWM, up to 20 KHz, allows to control the speed of the motor in all possible conditions. In all cases, a low level state on the PWM pin turns off both the LSA and LSB switches.

Name Description

Logic controlAllows the turn-on and the turn-off of the high-side and the low-side switches according to the truth table.

Undervoltage Shuts down the device for battery voltage lower than 5V.

High-side and low-side clamp voltageProtect the high-side and the low-side switches from the high voltage on the battery line.

High-side and low-side driverDrive the gate of the concerned switch to allow a proper RDS(on) for the leg of the bridge.

Current limitation Limits the motor current in case of short circuit.

High-side and low-side overtemperature protection

In case of short-circuit with the increase of the junction temperature, it shuts down the concerned driver to prevent degradation and to protect the die.

Low-side overload detectorDetects when low side current exceeds shutdown current and latches off the concerned Low side.

Fault detectionSignalizes the abnormal behaviour of the switch (output shorted to ground or output shorted to battery) by pulling down the concerned ENx/DIAGx pin.

Power limitationLimits the power dissipation of the high-side driver inside safe range in case of short to ground condition.

INA

INB

Voltage controlled input pins with hysteresis, CMOS compatible. These two pins control the state of the bridge in normal operation according to the truth table (brake to VCC, Brake to GND, clockwise and counterclockwise).

PWMVoltage controlled input pin with hysteresis, CMOS compatible. Gates of low-side FETS get modulated by the PWM signal during their ON phase allowing speed control of the motor.

ENA/DIAGA

ENB/DIAGB

Open drain bidirectional logic pins.These pins must be connected to an external pull up resistor. When externally pulled low, they disable half-bridge A or B. In case of fault detection (thermal shutdown of a high-side FET or excessive ON-state voltage drop across a low-side FET), these pins are pulled low by the device (see Table 14: Truth table in fault conditions (detected on OUTA)).

CSAnalog current sense output. This output delivers a current proportional to the motor current if CS_DIS is low or left open. The information can be read back as an analog voltage across an external resistor.

CS_DIS Active high CMOS compatible pin to disable the current sense pin.

VNH5180A-E Application information

Doc ID 17074 Rev 6 19/31

3 Application information

In normal operating conditions the DIAGX/ENX pin is considered as an input pin by the device. This pin must be externally pulled high.

PWM pin usage: In all cases, a “0” on the PWM pin turns off both LSA and LSB switches. When PWM rises back to “1”, LSA or LSB turn on again depending on the input pin state.

Figure 11. Typical application circuit for DC to 20 kHz PWM operation short circuit protection

Note: The value of the blocking capacitor (C) depends on the application conditions and defines voltage and current ripple on supply line at PWM operation. Stored energy of the motor inductance may fly back into the blocking capacitor, if the bridge driver goes into 3-state. This causes a hazardous overvoltage if the capacitor is not big enough. As basic orientation, 500 µF per 10 A load current is recommended.

In case of a fault condition the DIAGX/ENX pin is considered as an output pin by the device.

The fault conditions are:

– Overtemperature on one or both high-sides

– Short to battery condition on the output (overcurrent detection on the low-side Power MOSFET)

Possible origins of fault conditions may be:

OUTA is shorted to ground → overtemperature detection on high-side A

OUTA is shorted to VCC → low-side Power MOSFET overcurrent detection

When a fault condition is detected, the user can identify which power element is in fault by monitoring the INA, INB, DIAGA/ENA and DIAGB/ENB pins.

Application information VNH5180A-E

20/31 Doc ID 17074 Rev 6

In any case, when a fault is detected, the faulty leg of the bridge is latched off. To turn on the respective output (OUTX) again, the input signal must rise from low to high level.

Figure 12. Behavior in fault condition (how a fault can be cleared)

Note: In case of the fault condition is not removed, the procedure for unlatching and sending the device in Stby mode is:

- Clear the fault in the device (toggle: INA if ENA = 0 or INB if ENB = 0)

- Pull low all inputs, PWM and Diag/EN pins within tDEL.

If the Diag/En pins are already low, PWM = 0, the fault can be cleared simply toggling the input. The device enters in stby mode as soon as the fault is cleared.

3.1 Reverse battery protectionThree possible solutions can be considered:

– A Schottky diode D connected to VCC pin

– An N-channel MOSFET connected to the GND pin (see Figure 11: Typical application circuit for DC to 20 kHz PWM operation short circuit protection)

– A P-channel MOSFET connected to the VCC pin

The device sustains no more than -15 A in reverse battery conditions because of the two Body diodes of the Power MOSFETs. Additionally, in reverse battery condition the I/Os of VNH5180A-E is pulled down to the VCC line (approximately -1.5 V).

Figure 13. Half-bridge configuration

Note: The VNH5180A-E can be used as a high power half-bridge driver achieving an On resistance per leg of 90 mΩ.

Figure 14. Multi-motors configuration

Note: The VNH5180A-E can easily be designed in multi-motors driving applications such as seat positioning systems where only one motor must be driven at a time. DIAGX/ENX pins allow to put unused half-bridges in high impedance.
